At OpenCharge, we’re revolutionizing mobility in Kenya by making electric vehicle ownership more accessible than ever before. We believe that owning a vehicle shouldn’t be out of reach for hardworking ride-hail drivers and individuals. That’s why we offer flexible, affordable financing solutions that empower you to take control of your future with clean, cost-efficient electric vehicles.

Our financing model offers flexible repayment terms ranging from 36 to 60 months, with a low monthly rate of 1.7% on reducing balance. The process includes a credit assessment, after which approved applicants can select their preferred EV and repayment plan.

We focus on providing financing for electric vehicles, specifically models like the 2019 Nissan Leaf, among other upcoming models, which are ideal for ride-hail drivers in Kenya. Our fleet is selected for its reliability, efficiency, and suitability for the local market.

Our financing is primarily aimed at ride-hail drivers, but individuals interested in switching to electric vehicles can also apply. Eligibility is determined based on a comprehensive credit assessment, which considers factors beyond just traditional credit scores

By financing an EV with OpenCharge, you benefit from lower monthly fuel costs, reduced maintenance expenses, and our competitive interest rates. Additionally, our customers enjoy free charging for the first year of their loan, making the transition to electric driving even more affordable and enjoyable.

You can apply for financing directly through our website by filling out a simple online application form. After submitting the form and uploading required documents (National ID, KRA PIN, 3 – 6 month bank/Mpesa statement), our team will conduct a credit assessment and contact you with the next steps if you qualify.

Payments can be made through various digital channels, including mobile money, bank transfers, and direct debit. We offer flexible options to ensure that payments fit conveniently into your monthly budget. Details of the payment account will be included in your loan offer letter.

There are several public charging stations in urban areas across Kenya, and more are being added regularly. OpenCharge customers also benefit from a network of partner charging stations where they can charge their vehicles for free during the first year of their loan.

We provide ongoing support to our customers, including assistance with vehicle servicing, access to a network of charging stations, and customer service to address any questions or concerns that may arise during your loan term.
